The methyl malonate esters of 3-buten-1-ol and 2-methyl-3-buten-1-ol can be coupled efficiently to different methallylic esters in the presence of the second-generation Grubbs catalyst to yield trisubstituted olefins by the cross-metathesis reaction. Product selectivity and yields depend on the relative amounts of reagents and to a minor extent on the methallylic ester functional group. Alkyl substituents at either the allylic or the geminal positions significantly affect the product yields and the E/Z stereoselectivity. The cross-metathesis reactions of homoallyl malonates with allylic esters featuring a variety of alkyl substituents at the vinylic and/or allylic positions afford trisubstituted olefins. Copyright

Reaction of manganese(III) acetate with diphenyl disulphide in dichloromethane-trifluoroacetic acid in the presence of allylic esters gives trifluoroacetoxy sulphides, which on hydrolysis readily afford vicinal hydroxy sulphides.With acetate esters, neighbouring group participation by the acetate functionality controls the reaction course.Thus regiospecific addition to allyl acetate affords after hydrolysis only 3-phenylthiopropane-1,2-diol.In contrast, with trifluoroacetate esters the inductive effects of the trifluoroacetate functionality lead to a different regiocontrol.Thus addition of diphenyl disulphide to allyl trifluoroacetate gives after hydrolysis only 2-phenylthiopropane-1,3-diol.The regio- and stereochemistry of addition to a variety of other allylic (and homoallylic) esters is described and the extension of this type of regiocontrol is discussed.
